Back Boxes

[ryan13961345402285 1]

Hi folks.

I have a full stainless system on my car (Mongoose I think) but the I can't stand the sight of the back box. Its a twin rectangular tail-pipe(like something you'd see on a Vauxhall lol) and I'd prefer something like a 3" round - nice and neat.

Anyone know who makes stainless boxes for them nowadays? They seem a bit thin on the ground

Have you got a picture of this?

[Baz 421]

I think i've seen a similar one and doesn't look too bad IMO.

[ryan13961345402285 1]

I'll post a pic later on. Only pic I have is a semi-side view

[ryan13961345402285 1]

Don't look too bad but agree it looks as though it's off an Astra

How much to post to England?

KrisKarrera - Chav @ heart!

 

I personally don't think it's too bad, you got a pic of it fitted?

[Jer309GTi 3]

If you want chav you should see the 4 or 5" pipe I've got hanging out the back of the new Mi I'll take a photo a bit later

[Jer309GTi 3]

Here's the backbox on the new one. Its actually a 4", a slash cut type:

 

 

It actually sounds quite nice, it just wasn't fitted very well and has started to melt the bumper

 

Ryan, your exhaust looks quite similar to the one on my current car except mine is oval rather than rectangular (LINK)

That looks erm er.....well, not too great, pretty chav, you're winning the chav award at the moment

[ryan13961345402285 1]

I'm thinking of cutting the pipes off and welding on 2 x 2.5 or 3 inch round ones (my brother is prety handy with a tig welder)

Thats a good idea Saves having to buy a new back box

got a ful stainles scorpion zorst on my 4bie complete with rattly middle box lol

[Silky 33 1 Cars]

I take it it's hard to get hold of a std 4bie exhaust system then ?!

[Baz 421]

Yup! pretty much, i had to make the part across the rear beam as a stand-in when i got my first 4bie! Got a few bits now though, Higgy gave me half a stainless system too!

Probably seen mine before... But thanks Gav!

[KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars]

That's the kind I'd like. Though I have to say my standard exhaust is quite boomy on the motorway at 5000rpm.

Whenever I see people's numberplates, they always seem to ring a bell, as if I've seen the car before on ebay.

[Feeble 0]

Mine was bought from eBay!

 

And my exhaust used to rattle at the centre box so we adjusted the rubbers at the back box so they're extra tight and it's sorted the problem! Centre box rubber is so hard to replace!

Ahh, and that's something I've been meaning to ask for ages, Kris...

Second picture... Is that your car? I'd have sworn it was mine, but the guy reckons it's yours! Looks just like my reg!

[KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars]

Yep! That's mine. That car was Zowow's - he is a member here. He's now got a 205 - swapped with a local mate and I think it's being broken . Is quite alot wrong with it though.

So yours had a TDU number plate as well then...

[triple_a_motorsport 0]

iv got a 4bie middle section, rusty but complete and not rotten and no holes. not sure on the condition of the silencer
